Zombie The Coronavirus Financial Thread (Personal, Local, National)

Crazy. Just one small step towards 666.

 

Yeah, one of my cousins is sharing them on a group FB chat with the fam, I was like WTF is this?

 

Like cost of living? Like if they move from NYC to Topeka?

 

Neighbor is a designer out at Nike. Said his department isn't going back to the campus until September 1 at the earliest.

 

the more businesses close the cheaper commercial real estate overheads will become here...I see empty malls and buildings for rent by the zillions stateside over the next couple of years..wages will have to match cost of living somehow..I think it will end in less outsourcing not more

 

Yep. Or Bangladesh

 

If people are working remotely:

What is the necessity to live in a major, metropolitan area.

Furthermore, what is the necessity to live in the United States?

 

I left the US for 20 years.....there has never been a necessity to live here...it's just a choice. The real estate game is going to burst in my view from a flooded market of commercial properties

 

Curbside pickup is going going to be the new normal. There are going to be apps coming where you will be able to try clothes on virtually.

 

I actually went into a regular retail store in Hermosa Beach and shopped around today. Probably 20% of the people out had masks on.

 

Did you buy anything?

 

Yeah, a mask lol (I am collecting a bunch of them)

 

Might be a smart move if experts are right and this virus ramps up in the fall & winter. Many say it's still just beginning.

 

Not new in my neighborhood. It began decades ago when I lived in Aloha and it's been in place in Lake Oswego since I moved back here five years ago.
Where do you live?

 

I hear the casinos in Washington are packed. This is depressing news for me. I hate gambling.

Victoria's Secret is closing a quarter of its stores

 

Bath & Body works is also closing a good number of stores.

 

I'm in Beaverton. I'm just saying Curb side pick up might be more of the new normal now as a lot more people will be doing online shopping.

 

LOL, she has a crochet mask!
